Reduce 128352/238368 to its lowest terms:

[Wonder Boy]

We can clearly see that last 3 digit of numerator and denominator is divisible by 8. Hence the Nr. & Dr. is divisble by 8.

So on dividing by 8 we get

128352/238368 = 16044/29796

Again we can see last 2 terms of Nr. & Dr. is clearly divisible by 4 .

Son on dividing by 4, we get

 16044/29796 = 4011/7449

Add the term of Nr. and Dr. individually , clearly it is divisible by 3.

4011/7449 = 1337/2483

Now we factorize both Nr. and Dr.

1337 = 7*191

2483 = 13*191

so lowest term = 7/13 Ans.
